Earlier in this thread I talked about how modern films are bad because they put their politics ahead of their story and characters. There is one film I think is the perfect example of that.
James Cameron’s avatar movies. These films despite making billions of dollars are the textbook definition of slop because nobody remembers anything from these movies. People remember even the worst marvel or Star Wars projects but nobody remembers a thing from these films. They have no cultural impact whatsoever, don’t believe me ask a normie anything about the mcu, now ask them anything about avatar, they won’t even be able to tell you the main characters name. Hell did you even know avatar had a game? Avatar as no cultural legacy, it’s entire legacy is that it made a bunch of money and that it, nobody quotes it nobody remembers any characters, it is slop.
 
That's antique gear using modern photochemistry, not hand-mixed solutions with zero-9s purity starter materials where they didn't really understand the why's of what was happening
Yeah but we're talking about exposure time not development time. That's a different can of worms that doesn't have to do with the people getting their photo taken. I'm just now realizing that applies to the plates as well. But still, 20 seconds seems like a lot for the resulting photo that's a 10x difference

This is like a humiliation ritual for globohomo politicians and gorillionaires. Didn't Jack Ma do the same thing and the Chinese government kidnapped him and accused him of all kinds of fraud o algo?

1840s dageurrotypes requires 40-60 second exposure. By the 1860s, you have the wet colloidon process, which took only 1-5 seconds. Cheaper tintypes took 1-20 seconds exposure.

Col Quartich is awesome.
 
How does a 200 million dollar ballroom help us?
Because people respect the trappings of wealth and if you take another leader into a giant ballroom made of gold it gives a better impression than if your ballroom looks like a motel 6
 
Reminder of the climate hoax war that everyone seems to not give a shit nowadays
I don't why that sex pest faggot Bill Nye of all people became the figurehead of the "trust ze experts" reddit crowd. I get that he's popular or whatever the fuck but the guy has a degree in engineering and has consistently proven that he has no idea what he's talking about when you take his script away and force him to not be a snarky faggot.

Israel is going to fall so fast once all these traitorous boomer fucks finally pass away and reach the depths of hell where they belong

Can you link me some videos of Bill having his script taken away? He always seemed like somebody with a couple skeltons in his closet

I fucking wish. But it won't happen in our lifetimes. They are just too deep in the guts of America. Like a horrible tapeworm. They have the next set of pawns lined up. At least people are noticing though.

Specifically looking for those I'm not seeing any that developed that quickly at the time. 5-20 seconds for wet collodion and 20-60 for tintypes is what I'm finding, and tintypes were the most commonly used. Wet collodion survived into the 30s (and has been revived in the last few decades just for fun) and I'm sure it got faster over time but I just can't find a reference to them being that fast in the 1850s/60s
